Finally, the "Assassin's Creed" movie has a new release date. Fox originally planned to have the film hit theaters in August of 2015 but pushed it back late last year. On Tuesday (Jan. 6), the studio announced that the movie is scheduled to be released Dec. 21, 2016.

Justin Kurzel has signed on as director and so far Michael Fassbender is the only actor attached to the film. It's been rumored that the movie's plot will pull from several different "Assassin's Creed" video games.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, in the film a bartender is kidnapped by a large corporation and is forced into The Animus, which allows him to "relive the memories of his ancestors" - who turned out to be assassins - so he could retrieve dangerous artifacts.   

Fox also announced the release dates for several other films. Check them out below:

"Gambit," the "X-Men" spinoff starring Channing Tatum, will be released Oct. 7, 2016.
